After doing a telehealth visit with a provider if it is determined you need a COVID 19 test your provider will arrange a specific time and location for you to get the test.

You are asked to come into the office masked at a specific time and will be brought back immediately for testing. We ask as soon as the test is complete that you exit the office masked. COVID test results take about 5-9 days to return at this time. Please follow your providers instructions to self quarantine and socially isolate. It is recommended you continue with telehealth appointments every 1-2 days with your provider for clinical monitoring.

If your test is positive for COVID 19 your provider along with the local health department will be in contact with you regarding the next steps including contact tracing and recommendations for you and your family.

Scheduling an Appointment


If you have traveled internationally and are experiencing upper respiratory or flu like symptoms (cough, shortness of breath or fever), or if you believe you have been exposed to the coronavirus (COVID-19), we strongly encourage you to schedule a telehealth (telemedicine) visit. Your telemedicine visit will allow your provider, or one of their colleagues to remotely communicate with you to assess your health and decide the best course of action and treatment. Telehealth visits are available 7 days a week. Please use the following link (Click Here) for more information on telehealth services and to schedule a telehealth visit.

If you are unable to schedule a telehealth visit or wish to see a medical professional in our office, please call us at (410) 535-2005 to schedule an appointment. When making your appointment, please tell the call center agent that you are calling for possible coronavirus symptoms. When you arrive for your appointment, put on a mask and ensure that your mouth and nose are completely covered. Do not use the self-serve check-in kiosk, tell the front desk you are scheduled for a possible coronavirus visit. The front desk staff will assist you with registration.
